Senior Computing

As we seniors know, sometimes we have trouble with our computers. I had a problem yesterday, so I called Eric, the 11 year old next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control and asked him to come over. 

Eric clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem. As he was walking away, I called after him, ‘So, what was wrong?

He replied, ‘It was an ID ten T error.’

I didn’t want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, ‘An,  ID ten T error? What’s that? In case I need to fix it again.’

Eric grinned…  ‘Haven’t you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?

‘No,’ I replied.

‘Write it down,’ he said, ‘and I think you’ll figure it out.’

So I wrote down:

ID10T

Eric is a little shit! But I might need his assistance again so I’ll keep quiet.
